So they should instead shaft their much larger body of non-enterprise customers who have been using Entourage since long before you ever came on the scene? Hmmmm. That would go over well with your typical Mac customer - not. MacBU (and Jud in particular - are you aware you're catcalling and insulting the developer who created Entourage from scratch?) were landed with the responsibility of taking over Exchange support by the decision of the Outlook team to give up when Mac OS X arrived. They have done a fantastic job, release after release, of improving the experience in an application that was designed to do no such thing. And they (although not Jud, who has moved on to other endeavors but still cares enough to respond here and keep an eye of things back at MacBU) will continue to do so. You can expect further improvements in subsequent releases. But don't expect them to dump all their non-Exchange customers for your sake. It's not going to happen. You'll have to decide if you'd rather just use a PC, if Outlook means that much to you. -- Paul Berkowitz MVP MacOffice Entourage FAQ Page: <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/faq/index.html> AppleScripts for Entourage: <http://macscripter.net/scriptbuilders/> PLEASE always state which version of Microsoft Office you are using - 2004, X or 2001.
